Rich and yet lonely | B |
Nothing to do | C |
Except to wait my time | D |
To meet His Divine | E |
- | |
I looked for diversion | F |
And I found you just in time | D |
I wonder why | G |
So many people flocked to you | C |
Was it for amusement or fortune | F |
I don't know | H |
- | |
Like a magnet | I |
I was drawn to you | C |
You entered my life | J |
And I was sucked | K |
Into my own world of fun | F |
- | |
You bring extreme joy | L |
To the heart of my very being | M |
When I am with you | C |
I have a fountain of youth | N |
So relaxed | O |
Yet so giddy | B |
- | |
I am always excited | P |
To be in your corner | Q |
Like a teen age boy | L |
Going on his first date | R |
- | |
Whenever I enter your house | S |
It amazes me | B |
And everything fades from view | C |
But only you | C |
- | |
We played with sheer eagerness | T |
Under your roof | U |
Illuminated with fancy stars | V |
Then I heard a roar | W |
Or was it a thunder | Q |
That came out of nowhere | X |
- | |
My head | Y |
Suddenly spin | Z |
With the million of spins | A2 |
I have ever seen | B2 |
- | |
People came like paparazzi | B |
My world seemed to cease | C2 |
But I seized it | D2 |
In just a blink of an eye | G |
My fortune increased | E2 |
To thousandfold | E2 |
- | |
I tasted the beginner's luck | F2 |
And I played with you | C |
More more and more | W |
I became greedy as hell | G2 |
- | |
I stayed with you at daytime | D |
Noontime and nighttime | D |
The fortune | F |
That I got in an instant | E2 |
Is all gone | H2 |
- | |
I visited you four days a week | I2 |
Other days were spent solely in my bed | E2 |
Too hard to get up on my butt | E2 |
Except when there are perks | J2 |
That can lure me up | K2 |
- | |
I love the action to death | L2 |
But because of exhaustion | F |
It is no longer relaxation | F |
It ends up to sleep deprivation | F |
- | |
But whatever I do | C |
I can't get you out of my mind | E2 |
I never stopped wanting you | C |
Whenever I lose my bankroll | M2 |
I will put more to make it roll | M2 |
- | |
I embarked all my fortune in you | C |
I played and put at one fell swoop | N2 |
Hoping I could amass | O2 |
All the wealth on earth | P2 |
- | |
But in one heartbeat | E2 |
I was doomed | E2 |
To the status of a bankrupt man | Q2 |
Lonely and destitute | E2 |
Citizen of my Motherland | E2 |
